Company Overview
At Lendsqr, our mission is to provide every African with timely access to loans. In developed countries, access to loans helps citizens achieve significant milestones like education, first homes, cars, and even smartphones. Unfortunately, in Nigeria and Africa, many dreams remain unfulfilled due to lack of access to credit. Lendsqr is dedicated to changing this narrative by revolutionizing the loan acquisition process.
For the past few years, Lendsqr has been at the forefront of transforming loan accessibility. We empower lenders with the technology, data, and services they need to scale their digital lending operations. Leading digital lenders like Kredi Bank, Urgent10k, Irorun, and Sterling Bank rely on Lendsqr to power their lending systems.
